The company just unveiled the Ellio Max that uses the company’s signature two-wheel-drive, combining it with a 1,150 Wh battery for long range and a 45 km/h (28 mph) top speed for fast commuting. Their bikes use a combination of a mid-drive motor to power the rear wheel and a front hub motor to create an all-wheel-drive e-bike. I only recently learned about Ellio while at Micromobility Europe a couple of weeks ago, but the company definitely caught my attention. Suffice it to say, when it comes to uniqueness, no one can touch these companies. I recently got an XS folding e-bike from Exxite and am excited to have that review coming soon. Rayvolt’s sister brand eXXite was also at the show with its much more modern but equally nicely designed e-bikes. The bikes are also quite high-tech, being some of the first to offer features like backward pedaling to activate regenerative braking. And having tested many of these bikes myself, I can tell you that they ride as good as they look. Barcelona-based Rayvolt combines Catalonian leatherwork with brass accents and bright colors to create beautiful rolling works of art. Everyone else is competing for second place when it comes to artistic design meets engineering. I always love seeing Rayvolt at an e-bike show because frankly I think they build the most beautiful electric bikes. These bikes answer the question, what would happen if Erik Buell built electric bicycles. Basically, they look like they were designed a motorbike designer, because they were. The bikes also feature Gates carbon belt drives, quality hydraulic disc brakes, GPS-location for anti-theft, strong racks, tight hugging fenders, Pirelli tires, and more.

Most people don’t need that much range, but it adds peace of mind, plus the ability to turn charging into a weekly affair. The massive 1 kWh and 2 kWh batteries offer max ranges of over 100 miles and 200 miles (160 km and 320 km), respectively. The rest of the FUELL Flluid-2 and Flluid-3 are equally impressive, as they should be for bikes that start at $5,495.

You can also put the bike in manual electric shifting mode, but I enjoyed letting it do both the thinking and the acting for me, allowing me to simply pedal. I experienced that automatic shifting, which you can read more about in detail here, and it was pretty darn awesome. They both rock the new Valeo Cyclee mid-drive motor with built-in gearbox, offering the possibility of predictive automatic shifting. It made it possible for us to check out the show and get an extended experience testing out the new Flluid-3 as well as talk to the team about the new Flluid-2 on display.īoth bikes are quite simillar, with the main difference being that the Flluid-2 has dual batteries for 2 kWh of capacity while the Flluid-3 comes in a step-through frame. FUELL Flluid-2 and Flluid-3 e-bikesįirst of all, a big thank you to FUELL for sponsoring our Eurobike 2023 coverage this year. The show’s sheer vastness makes it impossible to cover even a small fraction of its entirety, but below you’ll find several of the standout features we saw at the show. For all of the rest of us, it was a great chance to see hundreds, or perhaps thousands, of companies showing off new e-bikes, e-bike gear, and sometimes unrelated yet equally cool transportation… things.
If you’re an old-school curmudgeon who has dug in your heels trying to slow the forward pedaling motion of e-bikes, that might leave you dismayed. Electrek returned to Eurobike again this year, and as usual, the show was dominated by electric bikes.
